Remember
Bhoomika
Chawla?
This
actress
began
with
a
bang
in
Bollywood
starring
opposite
Abhishek
Bachchan
and
Salman
Khan,
but
faded
into
oblivion
soon
after
her
films
bombed
at
the
box
office.
Presently,
Bhoomika
is
doing
regional
films
-
Telugu,
Punjabi
and
more.
She
says
she
is
happy
with
what
she
is
doing,
but
longs
to
return
to
Bollywood
in
a
big
way.
Recently,
we
spoke
to
Bhoomika
and
she
revealed
a
lot
about
her
career,
aspirations
and
more.
Here
is
the
excerpt.
Tell
us
something
about
this
Punjabi
film
of
yours...
This
film
is
called
Yaariyean,
which
in
Punjabi
means
relationships
and
friendships.
It
is
completely
based
on
all
sorts
of
relationships
and
not
just
one.
It
could
be
between
a
boy
and
a
girl,
a
mother
and
a
son,
a
father
and
a
daughter,
a
friends
and
another,
two
strangers
or
even
between
a
boyfriend
and
a
girlfriend.
So
can
it
be
called
a
family
entertainer?
Yes,
why
not.
It
is
a
beautiful
film
for
one
and
all.
I
mean
everyone
is
going
to
love
watching
this
film.
It
is
a
complete
family
entertainer.
What
is
your
role
in
the
film?
My
role
in
the
film
is
that
of
a
girl
called
Simran
who
lives
abroad
and
is
rather
a
simple,
but
a
very
intelligent
girl.
She
loves
to
see
and
live
life
to
the
fullest,
but
somehow
does
not
do
it
much.
Then
comes
a
point
in
her
life
where
her
life
changes
and
she
start
to
enjoy
life.
How
did
this
film
come
about
you?
See,
when
the
director
had
approached
me
for
this
film
and
narrated
me
the
story,
what
interested
me
was
the
script.
For
me
what
mattered
was
I
was
getting
a
different
film,
which
deals
with
relation
which
deals
with
the
fact
that
you
can
go
out
of
the
country
to
earn
big
buck.
I
think
it
is
a
very
common
factor
around
us,
whether
it
is
Punjabi
or
Telegu
people;
everybody
would
like
to
go
out
and
earn
their
money
and
be
successful.
Sometimes
it
happens
that
they
don't
earn
anything,
but
yet
come
back
and
say
that
I'm
a
foreign
return
and
all
that.
So,
because
the
film
is
so
realistic
and
because
the
fact
that
every
emotion
dealt
in
the
film
is
real,
that
I
had
to
accept
it.
There
was
no
way
I
could
say
no
to
it.
An
the
fact
that
Dipak
Sir(director)
said
that
it
stars
Om
Puriji,
Gurdas
Mann
Sir
was
even
another
reason
for
me
to
do
this
film.
My
desire
was
to
work
with
them.
What
do
you
look
for
in
a
film
while
signing
it?
I
am
a
person
who
goes
by
scripts.
The
end
result
which
is
the
after
release
result,
I
would
not
say
does
not
matter
much
to
me
but
it
is
not
that
important
to
me
as
it
would
be
for
any
other
actor.
I'm
happy
with
whatever
I
have
done
till
now.
How
was
it
working
with
Gurdas
Mann,
especially
since
he
is
a
big
name
in
Punjab?
I
think
Mann
Saab
is
one
of
those
rare
few
people
I
have
worked
with
who
would
make
me
so
comfortable
in
my
skin.
He
is
a
great
human
being
and
a
fantastic
singer
who
sings
from
his
soul.
He
is
such
a
humble
man
and
does
not
have
any
issues
in
life.
He
is
a
little
conscious,
but
I
think
that
makes
it
all
the
better
for
him.
He
does
not
bother
where
the
came
is
and
where
he
has
to
look
and
all
these
things,
so
you
get
very
natural
reactions
from
him.
It
comes
from
his
soul.
Where
had
this
film
been
shot
and
when
is
the
expected
time
for
release?
Around
90%
of
this
film
has
been
shot
in
Vancouver
in
Canada.
Then
rest
of
it
had
been
shot
at
different
locales.
